Tiny Worlds
Door open 20h
20h30: Japan 1987, 110min, english subs
A messy bachelor's apartment is a paradise for the huge colony of
cockroaches living there: no sprays, no traps, and plenty of food. When
the homeowner's girlfriend moves in, however, the party comes to an
abrupt end, and the roaches must quickly adapt to a life of struggling
for survival. Combines animation with live actors.
22h30: Germany 1970, 84min. GERMAN
1970 was a busy year for Zbynek
Brynych, as he managed to make Die Weibchen and Angels With Burnt Wings
in addition to this psychedelic curiosity.
The German Seventeen and Anxious was also released as O Happy Day. The film's alternate title is a reference to a popular gospel song, which is performed often and con brio in the course of the action. The film's official title alludes to the coming of age experienced by its youthful protagonists. The younger actors are green but eager to please, while the veterans in the supporting cast-including Nadja Tiller and Karl Michael Vogler-help make the film palatable for those among us not politely inclined to nervous teenagers. The film's R rating is admittedly necessary, but should not suggest that the film is overtly offensive. Unfortunately, Seventeen and Anxious represents the next-to-last film effort for its talented director, Zbynek Brynych. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
